http://www.hlj.com/ Check out the new Hasegawa 1/48 Raptor in the hobby show notes,that has really got me excited.I am glad that I didn't jump on the Academy one,I would rather have a Hasegawa offering,or at least compare the reviews.

Thanks Anthony but you are a day late .... see Tamiya 1/32 Spit IX thread

Honestly I am not that excited about this kit .. I have the Academy kit plus a few goodies (and a super decal sheet in the box!!) and it looks close enough for me ... I do not need three of these coffee tables.

Though I fully understand that Hasegawa has done their own as such projects do not run for a few weeks but some year(s) and they probably were in the middle of it when Aca brought theirs out. The F-16F will be nice and there is probably a bit more up the sleve ....

cheers

Best place to look for info on an F-22 is in a Spitfire thread.

Yeah, Andy, you are right, but with all the fuzz about that HLJ news stuff in the forums yesterday, I thought that just one thread here is (more than) enough

cheers

P.S. when you read that thread you will notice why I referenced it
